Just two weeks left until the full release of Elemental War. Almost done!

Highlights

We'll leave specific highlights out this time as there is no big new stuff this time. In 0.9.18 we fixed a lot of bugs, partially they are related to the newly introduced achievements, but there is also other stuff. The Steam and Smoke tower got their smoke/steam highlighted which didn't look that good, so we removed it. Selling multiple towers was broken for a while now and on Mac the element buttons were invisible when starting a game and before hovering them the first time.
There was way more than this, but these are some highlights.

On the feature side we made the score rank achievements to progress achievements so you can see your progress no reaching them in the Steam achievement view. This was already part of the hotfix for 0.9.17. We also added more monster sounds, so every monster now has a sound that is randomly played while it's on the map.
